It is fun, easy-going and a social event in a pub – not like going into a classroom! You will use the language in real life situations!
Increase your confidence speaking a foreign language – no need to worry about making mistakes – the person opposite you is in the same situation. The best way to learn a language is to speak it!
Learn more than just the language you are learning by talking to someone who is a native speaker and finding out what is it like where they are from and a bit about their culture and lifestyle. You’ll be sure to pick up on different accents too.
The events are run in the heart of Dublin city at Doyles on College St (Mondays at 6.30pm) and at River Bar on Burgh Quay (Thursdays at 6.3om) – super venues at a convenient city centre locations and times. They also have great food and drinks!

Such a great idea and brilliant if you want to build your confidence in speaking a new language ..staff are so friendly too I will definitely be back!
5 out of 5. Last Thursday was my first time and I absolutely enjoyed the experience. It’s good for those ones who are practicing their conversational skills in a new language. And it’s a good place to meet people and to make friends. Keep doing a great job guys . See you soon!
Just back from attending 1st French/English language exchange at Dtwo Harcourt street. Great experience ! What a wonderful way to improve your language – informal and friendly – great people – will def be back . Well done to all involved.
I just came back from my first Language Exchange meetup and absolutely loved it! Amazing people, a very nurturing environment and great fun overall! Highly recommended!
This is where a language is learnt. Much more than in the classroom. You speak with natives and you don’t have to be nervous because they are in the same situation.
Hi! Hallo! Hola! Óla! Ciao! Hej! I just moved to Dublin and started to learn Portuguese here. The Language Exchange is a great way to practice with native speakers what I learned in class. No matter if you are a complete beginner or a advanced speaker, it’s the perfect place to do the first/next steps and improve from week to week. Don’t be afraid to come alone, you’ll make new friends easily and see more and more familiar faces the more meetings you join. It’s a nice mix of people from different countries, of different age, with interesting backgrounds, all connected by the wish to practice languages and help each others.
Some of my students can’t get enough and are always rushing off after lessons to practise the English they have just learnt at the Language Exchange. It gets a big thumbs up from me for helping students get used to spoken English outside of the classroom.
I am really enjoying to practice my English at Language Exchange in Dtwo on Mondays and Turks Head on Thursdays. It’s very fun and a good opportunity to meet new people!
Language Exchange Ireland gives you a great opportunity to learn and improve the language you are learning. It is very flexible as it accommodates many different languages, not just the most globally spoken ones. Every time I go there, I meet new faces from diverse cultures and ethnicities which I really enjoy. Language Exchange Ireland has really helped me with my Spanish and I’m sure for anyone who makes it a habitual, the result will be likewise. So for me, I can’t give it enough praise!
I really enjoyed my night at Language Exchange in Dtwo. Great meeting new people & getting to practice my Spanish. Looking forward to going back again!
